And here she is... the ol' Kendi Everyday dress. Who knew that there would ever be a dressed named after me? Well besides all of the other dresses in my closet that I go ahead and re-name in variations of Kendi. But that's beside the point. Anyways, a month ago or so I was Modcloth's Blogger of the Moment and now I'm wearing myself. There's got to be a better way to say that.

My blazer was the first purchase after my 30 for 30. I'd be vying for a black blazer, such a closet staple, and I found the perfect one at Target. It was marked $29, which I was like "eh, okay Target, I'll give you $30 for this blazer. It's lined, so that's cool." But when I checked out it was only $19. So then I went ahead and sprung for a pack of gum. After all of my silent bargaining, I deserved it.

The only sad part about this dress is I have no more parties to wear it to. Apparently we're losers and only get invited to a few holiday parties a year. I suppose I can wear it to my pity party that I'm having. I'd invite you but then it would be kind of fun. And I'd have to share my wine. Party for one it is.

Well at least the good thing about rocking a pity party for one is that you're guaranteed to be best dressed, right?! Not that that's a problem for you anyways - you and your sig dress look fabtastic!!

I was waiting til when we saw your dress. It's so awesome. I only wish it had a zipper to detach it, so it's a skirt, and a top. Then you could remix it like there is no tomorrow! Don't worry your not a loser, other than my 4 family parties I don't get invited to any shindigs. My Heart Blogged

I know! I think I already went to the one formal holiday party of the year to which I was invited... I don't know where all these other people are invited to, but I'm sure not there! I think your namesake dress is a thing of great beauty :D and Target is so weird like that sometimes...

OMG, Kendi. I just bought the EXACT SAME blazer today. I wasn't quite sold on it, but for being on clearance, and being the last one left, and IN MY SIZE, I had to get it. After seeing you in it, I'm pretty sure I'm keeping it.

SO awesome that you have a namesake dress. And it's SOOOOO pretty. Just like you. so perfect!

And I'm totally not invited to a single holiday party this year. My husband had to miss his work one, so I couldn't really go alone, and then my company's party is in January and it's not fancy schmancy. Then for actual friends/family, we never dress up, so there's no fun in that. :(

Totally gorgeous! i love the big neck ruffle!!! wear it on a hot date with your hubby! or grocery shopping... my sis Livy often will wear her newest most favorite pair of shoes in bed because they are so fab she can't bear to part with them... she's nuts... i just snuggle with mine at night.... ;)

That dress is gorgeous! And looks perfect paired with your Target blazer... I saw this one there yesterday and I almost bought it. However, I have my eye on the Norma Kamali Boyfriend Blazer from Walmart. It's $20.

So cute! I wasn't so sure about this dress when I saw it on ModCloth. The pictures didn't do it justice! I would invite you to my holiday party, but then you would look better than me AND drink my wine ;)

Throw a pity party for yourself and your huzzy, on new years! I spend it with the inlaws, and I am thinking of implementing a dress-up night, despite the fact we don't go out. I think it'll be a great time!

Cute dress, cute but short !!! Though it shows how amazing your legs are ... Aren't you the diabolic sort : having a dress named after you, so stylish and black and innocently short , so short that you can brag with those infinite legs of ours...GAH, I should hate you !

I tried on that very same Target blazer for 19 but it did not fit right. I was sad. Also the fabric was more stiff so I thought I can do better.... but I've been saying that for 5 years so perhaps not. My chest/waist/arms aren't meant to wear the same size blazer I don't think. plus I guess I have one that I should wear more http://colleen.akwire.net/_clothes/images/January8,2009big.jpg

@MUA & @Genny -- It is short! Thank goodness for tights, even though that's probably not the best rule to go by….haha. But yes, I'm not always able to shop at boutiques or online because of lengths. It's hard to be modest and tall at the same time when it comes to one size fits all lengths.

Kendi-you just converted me. I typically hate colored tights. I think they're so tacky and middle school. On you, and in this color? just beautiful. It goes too well w/this outfit. Putting this outfit in my inspiration folder. Bravo!

you look GORGEOUS!! i love this outfit. and i'm SO jealous that you got that blazer for $19! incredible. i've been looking for a great black blazer fro awhile now. i have my eyes on one that my sister-in-law has in her closet....
